Really it's hard to explain this. One thing is for sure: echo $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'] and echo $PATH_TRANSLATED give different outputs. register_globals is _on_. Actually after studying it seems that $PATH_TRANSLATED gets the same value that is in $_ENV['PATH_TRANSLATED'] which in turn seems to be DOCUMENT_ROOT but sometimes it is not the correct DOCUMENT_ROOT but document root of some other virtual host. But anyway it should be easily testable to some degree with this code: <? echo $PATH_TRANSLATED . "\n"; echo $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED']; ?> I get: /var/www/ /home/user/public_html/index.php My variables_order = "EGPCS" So I would expect the value in $_SERVER to be accessible by $PATH_TRANSLATED not the one in $_ENV. Why the value in $_ENV sometimes contains the path of some other virtul host's document root is still beyond me. Apache is 1.3.27 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-31 13:23:05] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not enough information was provided for us to be able to handle this bug.

Instead the value seems to reflect some other (older) request. Possibly the value is correct only if brand new apache child serves the request. The value in $_SERVER array is always correct. Current workaround: add extract($_SERVER, EXTR_OVERWRITE); to your auto-prepend php file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24886&edit=1
